Comparing this to the Laundry POD, this seems to not dry clothes as well? Can you not spin dry the clothes after a rinse?

No. I just let it drain until it stops dripping. Last rinse I usually let it drain for 10-15 min. You still have to wring out clothes. Different clothes, of course, hold more or less water....but the ones on the bottom definitely have more water in them!

You can fold them out to put the clothes on, and fold them back afterwards. The clothes would still dry. I actually use some clothes pins. I can get more clothes on that way. It closes on the clothes pins just fine, though sometimes I have to readjust a couple. It takes less than 30 seconds.

The washing instructions are to line dry so if you do try the dryer, I would use the air fluff cycle with low or no heat. I'm going to try drying mine outside to see how well that works

I have put them in the washer several times now. But I never dry my clothes. They hang dry. I just started wearing them. I don't know why I didn't start sooner.

Do you know how the smell is getting on your clothes? Will the smell come out in the laundry or does it still stick after you wash them? I don't know if this stuff will work on the chemical smell-- best thing I can think of is buy the smallest size ZorbX you can find, and try it on one smelly garment that you don't care too much about. If it works-- great-- use it on the rest of them. If it doesn't work, you haven't lost that much. You might even be able to return the rest of the ZorbX for a refund.

Short answer is no. The container is too small except to spin a pair of wet socks or underwear. The spinner does not dry nor does it spin fast enough to remove water from clothing. It does as advertised for vegetables and lettuce products. If you decide to spin socks or underwear, I hope you don't invite me to a salad party:-)

Yes. This is what I do just because I am not sure how well it would actually "wash" I use one of my detergent pods then I put in a shot glass full of the detergent in my liquid detergent dispenser. My clothes come out smelling so good!! I only use this on my own clothes and my sheets. No sense washing the hubbies work clothes in this. :)

I use a small amount of laundry soap, cold water, short cycle, gentle spin- then air fluff ( no heat!) in dryer. Or u could air dry, or hang in the sun if it ever comes out again!

I haven't had any such issues, and it is my only laundry method for the last approximately four months. Perhaps it relates to how and where I use it. I live in a motor home on my property, and there is a small seat in the shower. I place the pod there, so it drains naturally into the shower, and it is a good height for me to use it. I am as gentle on the machine as I can be, while still using it 3-4 times a week.

No, not yet. When I do, it will be in the washing machine with cold water. Then, I will air dry it. That is my plan. It works for most unusual things.

I have used them in both the washer and drier. Be aware though if the garment is thin and wrinkles you will dry wrinkles into the garment. If the clothing is a small item like socks or a larger item like a wool sweater that won't wrinkle it should dry fine. With larger items I would make sure to adjust the item a few times so that the middle doesn't stay damp. I am not the manufacture or a clothing specialist but what I'd like to think of is a professional house wife/mom.

I don't ever let them dry between uses. I typically do my laundry all in one day. So I use them back to back. I have been using them for 3 months now and I have had no problem or complaints doing It this way.

No, this washer does not have a spin dry function. Also, as a clothing washer I would highly recommend the Panda or Basecamp washers over this model. None of them have spin dry, so you will need a separate spinner. The small blue spinner works well. It operates at 1,600 RPM. This is quite a bit faster than a typical washing machines spin cycle. Those are normally about 600 RPM. The larger stainless steel drum spinner operates at 3,200 RPM and leaves your clothes dry enough to wear in a pinch. They will hang dry in only about an hour out of the faster machine. Buy whichever one suits your needs. Be aware that capacity wise the 3,200 RPM model more closely matches that of the Panda / Basecamp washer. Hope this helps!

I reckon if you pre treat/pre soak the diapers and put then in a load by themselves, it will work very well. Ive used it for my whites (which I've pre treated) and they came out better than in the regular large washer. Hope this helps answer your question. I definitely suggest getting a spin dryer when you get this model. The spin dryer removes so much water so hang time to dry is really low. YouTube has videos, so you can see these items in action.

As long as you are using the bona spray - mine is easy. I wash the pad, but hang to dry, no dryer.

You can wash the tote, but I wouldn't put it in the dryer. I also would take the pads out of the tote to wash them. Friction plays a huge role in washing your clothing. Also, the tote is waterproof, so the soapy water wouldn't be able to get to the pads.
